The HMIS Policies and Procedures Manual has undergone a comprehensive review to ensure that our current practices and guidelines are in agreement. Key revisions focus on privacy and security clarifications, improving data timeliness, and integrating changes to HMIS Data Standards. 

To learn about the changes,  please view

• the revised HMIS Policies and Procedures Manual, with highlighted content where changes were made; and

• the 2019 HMIS Policies and Procedures Manual Revisions Summary, which lists the changes and provides explanations why updated information was needed.

The current HMIS Policies and Procedures Manual, including the HMIS Governance Charter,  was adopted by the Alliance Board December 20, 2019.

It is the responsibility of all HMIS Partner agencies to confirm your HMIS practices adhere to the revised Manual.

Let us know if you have any questions or need additional assistance. Questions may be submitted through the HMIS Support Ticketing System, using "Policies" in the subject line.
